A

If English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?

According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.

The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.  A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from London University, took a group of Britain people who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.

Scans showed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference was.

“Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists. It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.

Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and math skill. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible,” he said. “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”

The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34. Reading, writing and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.

21. The main subject talked about in this passage is.

A. science on learning a second languageB. man’s ability of learning a second language

C. language can help brain powerD. language learning and math study

22. In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to.

A. say language is also a kind of physical labor

B. prove that one needs more practice when he/she is learning a language

C. show the importance of using the language when you learn the language

D. make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well

23. In the last two paragraphs, the author wants to tell us that.

A. learning a second language is the same as studying math

B. early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in study other subjects

C. Italian is the best choice for you as a second language

D. we’d better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language

B

There are a lot of names for people who travel the world — backpackers, tourists, explorers, travelers. Labels (标签) are everywhere but seem especially popular among travelers trying to differentiate (区别) their style of travel. For many travelers, these labels make them feel better over another.

Andrew Zimmern from Bizarre Foods once said, “Please be a traveler, not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people, and look beyond what’s right in front of you. Those are the keys to understanding this amazing world we live in.” The idea here is that travelers are better at exploring the world than tourists. They dig deep into the culture, drink it up, and get to know a place while a tourist takes pictures and declares to have “done Paris.”

But that’s wrong. We are all tourists.

Out on the road, backpackers love to talk about how real their travels are and how unreal tourists are. “Look at those tourists over there,” they say. They scoff atothers who travel too quickly or to places that they think are not well worth visiting. However, they do so while eating hamburgers and drinking beers with other travelers.

The only way to really get to know a place deeply is to live there. If you want to live like a local, find an apartment, get a job, go to work, and do the same things as you did back home.

We are all only passing through a culture, getting a small taste before moving on to the next place. Even if we stay weeks or months, we’re just getting in touch with the surface. As a matter of fact, we are all really just tourists, or explorers, or travelers. Call yourself whatever you want — it’s all the same as we’re all trying to do the same thing — see the world.

So don’t label anyone and don’t let anyone label you. We’re all tourists. We’re all travelers. What we are all doing is more important than what we call ourselves. Let’s just enjoy the fact that we are simply people on the road.

24. The mention of Andrew Zimmern’s words is to .

A. present amazing experiences B. differentiate travelers from tourists

C. give an example of misunderstanding D. get to know different kinds of people

25. Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “scoff at” in Paragraph 4?

A. Laugh at. B. Get along with. C. Take notice of. D. Wait for.

26. What do tourists and travelers have in common?

A. They live like locals while traveling. B. They enjoy tasty food on the way.

C. They have a brief experience of places. D. They like calling themselves explorers.

27. What does the author suggest in the passage?

A. Dig deep into the culture. B. Just enjoy the trip.

C. Make a careful trip plan. D. Do important things.

                                        C

Being physically fit at age 18 is linked to a higher IQ, a new study finds. The researchers also show that fitness predicts greater educational and professional achievements later in life. Earlier studies have found links between physical fitness and intelligence(智力)in animals, children and older adults. But the relationship in young adults hasn’t been clear.

In the new study, researchers used data(数据)to examine over 1.2 million young men born in Sweden between 1950 and 1976. All the men had their physical fitness and intelligence assessed(评估) at age 18. The researchers compared this information to details of later achievements in academic(学术), social and economic aspects from other national databases and made some findings.

Fitness in the 18-year-olds was strongly linked to scores on intelligence tests. “Being fit means that you have good heart and lung capacity and that your brain gets plenty of oxygen, ’’ says Dr. Michael Nilsson of the University of Gothenburg. “This may be one of the reasons why we can see a clear link with fitness.” The researchers also found that fit teens were more likely to get a university degree later in life. Fitness at age 18 was also linked to landing better jobs, with Higher pay or management responsibilities.

The findings point to the importance of encouraging physical fitness in teens. “If so, physical education is a subject that has an important place in schools,” says Dr. Maria Aberg of the University of Gothernburg.

28. What is the new study about?

A. The relationship among young adults.B. IQ differences between children and adults.

C. Educational and professional achievements.D. Teenagers’s physical health and intelligence.

29. How did the researchers make the findings?

A. By comparing data. B. By using earlier studies.

C. By giving intelligence tests. D. By interviewing young men.

30. What do the findings of the research suggest?

A. Similar researches should be made.

B. Jobs with higher pay are hard to get.

C. It’s time to improve teenagers’ intelligence.

D. Physical education should be stressed in schools.

 Dear John,

　　How is everything going recently? I’m writing to invite you to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, which is one of traditional festivals in China.

As is known to all, the Dragon Boat Festival is held in memory of the famous poet, Qu Yuan. Generally speaking, it takes place on May 5th in Chinese lunar calendar. And on that day, people will eat a special and delicious food which is made of rice—zongzi. Besides, people will gather to go boating or even take part in dragon boat races. Not only does the festival spread the traditional culture, but it also makes people closer.

Since you’re interested in traditional Chinese culture, I’m wondering if you’re available to join us.

I’m looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua
